Finally a real wuxia with friendship, brotherhood, and no unnecessarily dragged out conflicts. I loved all of the poems too. So many great moments. I'm going to include the poem that Xiao Se's name came from in case anyone wants to see it:
秋风萧瑟天气凉 Qiūfēng xiāosè tiānqì liáng The autumn wind is bleak, the weather is cool 草木摇落露为霜 cǎomù yáo luò lù wèi shuāng The plants wither and the dew turns to frost
I forget who makes the comment, but someone in the drama says that although Xiao Se's name is a little melancholy, it's very poetic 👌 and multiple times people are like 好名字! (Nice name!)
I really really love him as a person, and the idol Cha Eun Woo. But still can't like him as a actor. He's stiff,…
I think he's improved now that I'm seeing him in more diverse roles. His acting in Decibel, for one, was heartwrenching. And yes as he gains more experience he will keep improving :)))
I never thought I'd say this, but damn Liu Xueyi is still hot even when he's bald.
How is it fair, When a man needs not flowing hair, To emphasize those gorgeous features he wears? I say, it is he Whose eyes are deep pools of thought, Whose gaze is steady, Whose strong, regal nose many have sought. Is it fair that these features grace him so? I think not.
Wu fei is blaming qin shi for hurting her boyfriend even after they broke up two years ago. How unoriginal, what's…
I used to like Wu Fei, and now I absolutely abhor her. She revels in Qin Shi and Yang Hua's sufferings, knowing literally NOTHING ABOUT THEM. LIKE SHUT UP YOU SPOILED, ENTITLED, VENGEFUL, OBLIVIOUS GIRL.
Sorry this rage has been pent-up for a while lol. Every time I see her smiling and happy that those she hates (her words, not mine) are having bad things happen to them, I just wanna punch her through the screen.
Has Sou always had two sisters???? Or is that other girl the sister's friend? Because I swear I haven't seen her…
Ohhh, so I guess Moe is the younger one who still lives at home and Hana is the older one who has moved away and has a husband and baby. Makes sense, that's why I haven't seen her before.
Anybody recommend this as a relatively drama-free, angst-free drama? Trying to find something cute and simple to watch to rest my brain in-between studying for exams...
But if it helps narrow it down, I had the impression that the quote was said by 1) an older guy, and 2) after Xiao Se returned home to Tianqi
I don't speak Mandarin but doesn't that literally mean "White Beautiful?" xD

How is it fair,

To emphasize those gorgeous features he wears?
I say, it is he
Whose eyes are deep pools of thought,
Whose gaze is steady,
Whose strong, regal nose many have sought.

I think not.

But now that I've had a break from Prab constantly being in the dark about Noona and Nadia, I can enjoy it better lol
The actors really do have a talent for making normal things seem extremely funny xD and the romance is just an added bonus <3
I'm gonna study hard and do the exam tomorrow and then I'm gonna watch ep 9 xD
